[0042] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.
[0043] Combination Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a display device 10, such as Figure 3 As shown, the display device 10 includes a display panel mask 101, a bracket 102, a display panel 103 and a spring assembly (not shown in the figure). The bracket 102 is arranged on one side of the display panel mask 101, and the bracket 102 is provided with a through hole 1021. The display panel 103 is arranged on the side of the bracket 102 away from the display panel mask 101. The spring assembly is arranged on the side of the display panel 103 facing the bracket 102, and the spring assembly includes a spring 104 and a base 105, and the spring 104 can pass through the through hole 1021 to contact the display panel mask 101, wherein the base 105 is connected between the display panel 103 and the spring 104.
[0044] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display panel 103 is provided with a spring assembly, and the spring 104 is connected to the display panel 103 through the base 105, so that the base 105 can improve the stability of the spring 104 and prevent the spring 104 from shaking. At the same time, the spring 104 can pass through the through hole 1021 of the bracket 102 and contact the display panel mask 101, so that the through hole 1021 of the bracket 102 can limit and guide the expansion and contraction of the spring 104, avoid the spring 104 from deflecting, and improve the touch sensitivity and accuracy of the display device 10. In addition, by providing the base 105, the pressing distance is reduced, so that the length of the spring 104 is reduced, so that the thickness of the display device 10 can be reduced. In actual use, the thickness of the display device 10 is generally greater than 12mm. With the display device 10 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the thickness of the display device 10 can be less than or equal to 9mm. In this way, when the display device 10 is installed in the inner liner 100 or the door body with the foam layer, the thickness of the foam layer can be reduced, thereby ensuring the thermal insulation performance of refrigeration equipment such as refrigerators. In addition, the base 105 can improve the installation stability of the spring 104 and prevent the spring 104 from shaking.
[0045] For example, the display panel 103 is a PCB board.
[0046] Alternatively, if Figure 6 As shown, the base 105 includes a base body 1051 and a claw 1052. The base body 1051 is configured with a mounting portion 1053, and the mounting portion 1053 is used to mount the spring 104. The claw 1052 is arranged on a side of the base body 1051 away from the spring 104, and the claw 1052 is engaged with the display panel 103.
[0047] In the disclosed embodiment, the base 105 is clamped with the display panel 103 via the clamping claw 1052 . The clamping claw 1052 has a simple structure and is easy to process. It can also improve the connection stability between the base 105 and the display panel 103 and prevent the spring assembly from falling off from the display panel 103 .
[0048] Optionally, there are multiple claws 1052 , and the multiple claws 1052 are sequentially spaced apart along the circumference of the base 105 , which can improve the connection stability between the base 105 and the display panel 103 .
[0049] Optionally, the plurality of claws 1052 include a first claw 10521 and a second claw 10522, and the first claw 10521 and the second claw 10522 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the opposite sides of the base 105 can be connected to the display panel 103 through the claws 1052, thereby improving the setting stability of the base 105 and further ensuring the stability of the movement of the spring 104.
[0050] Optionally, the first claw 10521 and the second claw 10522 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the base 105 to improve the connection stability between the base 105 and the display panel 103 .
[0051] It is understandable that the number of the claws 1052 may be greater than two, and the user may set the number and positions of the claws 1052 according to the size and shape of the base 105 and the spring 104 .
[0052] Optionally, the display panel 103 is configured with a connection hole, which passes through the display panel 103 along the thickness direction of the display panel 103 , and the claw 1052 is clamped with the wall surface of the display panel 103 away from the spring 104 after passing through the connection hole.
[0053] In the disclosed embodiment, the claw 1052 passes through the connecting hole, that is, the claw 1052 passes through the display panel 103 and is connected to the side of the display panel 103 facing away from the spring 104, thereby further increasing the connecting area of the claw 1052 and further increasing the connecting stability of the base 105, thereby providing stable support for the telescopic movement of the spring 104.
[0054] Optionally, the claw 1052 includes a connecting portion 10523 and a hook 10524, one end of the connecting portion 10523 is connected to the base body 1051, the hook 10524 is connected to the other end of the connecting portion 10523, the hook 10524 protrudes toward one side of the connecting portion 10523, and a step structure is formed at the connection between the hook 10524 and the connecting portion 10523. When the base 105 is connected to the display panel 103, the wall surface of the display panel 103 facing away from the bracket 102 abuts against the step structure to ensure the connection strength between the claw 1052 and the display panel 103.
[0055] Optionally, when the plurality of claws 1052 include a first claw 10521 and a second claw 10522 , the hook 10524 of the first claw 10521 and the hook 10524 of the second claw 10522 are oriented in opposite directions, which facilitates the disassembly of the base 105 .
[0056] Optionally, when the base 105 is connected to the display panel 103 , the connecting portion 10523 is located in the connecting hole, wherein the cross-sectional area of the connecting hole is larger than the cross-sectional area of the connecting portion 10523 , and the cross-sectional area of the connecting hole is larger than the maximum cross-sectional area of the claw 1052 .
[0057] In the disclosed embodiment, the cross-sectional area of the connecting hole is larger than the cross-sectional area of the connecting portion 10523, so that the connecting portion 10523 can move in the connecting hole. When the base 105 needs to be disassembled, the two claws 1052 can be pressed simultaneously to move toward each other, and force can be applied to make the hook 10524 pass through the connecting hole to achieve the disassembly of the claws 1052 and the display panel 103.
[0058] Optionally, the cross-sectional area of the claw 1052 gradually decreases along the direction of insertion into the connection hole, so that after the hook 10524 is inserted into the connection hole, a step structure is formed at one end of the hook 10524 close to the display panel 103 to ensure the contact area with the display panel 103. In the direction away from the step structure, the cross-sectional area of the buckle gradually decreases, so that it is easy for the claw 1052 to pass through the connection hole, thereby improving the convenience of installation and removal of the claw 1052.
[0059] Optionally, the hook 10524 includes a first surface and a second surface that are oppositely arranged, the first surface is connected to one side of the step structure, and along the direction in which the hook 10524 is inserted into the connecting hole, the first surface is inclined toward the second surface, so that the structure of the first surface facilitates the claw 1052 to pass through the connecting hole.
[0060] Optionally, the distance between the hook 10524 and the protruding connection portion 10523 is in the range of 1.8 mm to 2.2 mm.
[0061] In the disclosed embodiment, the length of the hook 10524 protruding from the connection portion 10523 determines the contact area between the display panel 103 and the step structure. When the distance of the hook 10524 protruding from the connection portion 10523 is less than 1.8 mm, the hook 10524 is easy to fall off from the connection hole. When the length of the hook 10524 protruding from the connection portion 10523 is greater than 2.2 mm, the cost of the claw 1052 is high, and the protruding size of the hook 10524 is long, the opening area of the connection hole increases, which will reduce the strength of the display panel 103 and affect the circuit and other component settings of the display panel 103.
[0062] For example, the distance that the hook 10524 protrudes from the connecting portion 10523 may be 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, 2 mm, 2.1 mm or 2.2 mm, etc. Preferably, the distance that the hook 10524 protrudes from the connecting portion 10523 is 2 mm.
[0063] Optionally, the width of the hook 10524 ranges from 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm.
[0064] In the disclosed embodiment, the width of the hook 10524 refers to the extension direction of the hook 10524 along the width direction of the connecting portion 10523. When the width of the hook 10524 is less than 3.5 mm, the step structure area is small, which is not conducive to the stable connection between the base 105 and the display panel 103. When the width of the hook 10524 is greater than 4.5 mm, the size of the hook 10524 is too large, which increases the opening area of the connecting hole and also reduces the strength of the display panel 103.
[0065] For example, the width of the hook 10524 is 3.5 mm, 3.8 mm, 3.9 mm, 4 mm, 4.1 mm, 4.2 mm or 4.5 mm, etc.
[0066] Optionally, the width of the connecting portion 10523 is the same as or similar to the width of the hook 10524 , which facilitates the processing of the claw 1052 .
[0067] Optionally, the thickness of the connecting portion 10523 ranges from 0.8 mm to 1.2 mm.
[0068] In the disclosed embodiment, the thickness of the connection portion 10523 is less than 0.8 mm, resulting in low strength of the connection portion 10523. The thickness of the connection portion 10523 is greater than 1.2 mm, which will result in a thicker hook 10524, thereby increasing the opening area of the connection hole and reducing the strength of the display panel 103.
[0069] For example, the thickness of the connection portion 10523 is 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.2 mm, etc.
[0070] Optionally, the depth of the connecting hole ranges from 1.5mm to 2.0mmmm.
[0071] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the depth of the connection hole refers to the distance that the connection hole extends along the thickness direction of the display panel 103. If the depth of the connection hole is less than 1.5 mm, the thickness of the display panel 103 will be too small, the strength of the display panel 103 will be reduced, and it will be inconvenient to set up the circuit and other components of the display panel 103. If the depth of the connection hole is greater than 2.0 mm, the thickness of the display panel 103 will be too large, the length of the connection part 10523 will be increased, the production cost of the product will be increased, and it will not be conducive to reducing the thickness of the display device 10.
[0072] For example, the depth of the connection hole may be 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, or 2.0 mm, etc.
[0073] Alternatively, if Figure 4 As shown, the spring 104 is fixedly connected to the mounting portion 1053 .
[0074] In the disclosed embodiment, the spring 104 is fixedly connected to the mounting portion 1053 , which can prevent the spring 104 from falling off.
[0075] For example, the spring 104 and the mounting portion 1053 are fixedly connected by welding. Specifically, the spring 104 and the mounting portion 1053 can be connected by three-point welding.
[0076] Optionally, the mounting portion 1053 matches the cross-section of the spring 104 .
[0077] In the disclosed embodiment, the mounting portion 1053 matches the cross-section of the spring 104 , which means that the shape of the mounting portion 1053 is the same as or similar to the shape of the cross-section of the spring 104 , thereby facilitating the circumferential connection between the mounting portion 1053 and the spring 104 and improving the setting stability of the spring 104 .
[0078] For example, the cross section of the spring 104 is rectangular, and the mounting portion 1053 is rectangular. Alternatively, the cross section of the spring 104 is circular, and the mounting portion 1053 is also circular. Alternatively, the cross section of the spring 104 is polygonal, and the mounting portion 1053 is also polygonal.
[0079] Optionally, the base 105 also includes a limiting portion 1054, and the number of the limiting portions 1054 is multiple. The multiple limiting portions 1054 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart on the outer side of the mounting portion 1053 along the circumference of the mounting portion 1053, and the limiting portions 1054 protrude from the side of the mounting portion 1053 toward the spring 104. The limiting portions 1054 are used to limit the spring 104 from detaching from the mounting portion 1053.
[0080] In the disclosed embodiment, the limiting portion 1054 protrudes from the side of the mounting portion 1053 toward the spring 104, that is, the height of the limiting portion 1054 is higher than the height of the mounting portion 1053, so that the limiting portion 1054 can limit the deviation of the spring 104, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the key.
[0081] Optionally, the distance between the mounting portion 1053 and the wall surface of the display panel 103 facing the spring 104 ranges from 5 mm to 7 mm.
[0082] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between the mounting portion 1053 and the wall of the display panel 103 facing the spring 104 is the distance between the spring 104 and the display panel 103. When the distance between the mounting portion 1053 and the wall of the display panel 103 facing the spring 104 is less than 5 mm, the length of the spring 104 required by the display device 10 will increase, resulting in a relatively thick thickness of the display device 10. When the distance between the mounting portion 1053 and the wall of the display panel 103 facing the spring 104 is greater than 7 mm, the height of the base 105 is too high, which increases the distance between the base 105 and the bracket 102, and also increases the thickness of the display device 10.
[0083] For example, the distance between the mounting portion 1053 and the wall surface of the display panel 103 facing the spring 104 may be 5 mm, 5.5 mm, 5.8 mm, 5.9 mm, 6 mm, 6.1 mm, 6.2 mm, 6.5 mm or 7 mm, etc.
[0084] Optionally, the distance that the base 105 protrudes from the wall of the display panel 103 facing the bracket 102 ranges from 7 mm to 9 mm.
[0085] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance that the base 105 protrudes from the wall of the display panel 103 toward the bracket 102 refers to the thickness of the stopper 1054 and the display panel 103. When the distance that the base 105 protrudes from the wall of the display panel 103 toward the bracket 102 is less than 7 mm, the length of the spring 104 is long, which increases the thickness of the display device 10. When the distance that the base 105 protrudes from the wall of the display panel 103 toward the bracket 102 is greater than 9 mm, the height of the base 105 is high, which also increases the distance between the base 105 and the bracket 102, resulting in an increase in the thickness of the display device 10.
[0086] For example, the distance that the base 105 protrudes from the wall of the display panel 103 toward the bracket 102 may be 7 mm, 7.5 mm, 7.8 mm, 7.9 mm, 8 mm, 8.1 mm, 8.2 mm, 8.5 mm, 8.8 mm or 9 mm.
[0087] Alternatively, if Fig.11 As shown, the base 105 is a hollow structure. The display device 10 further includes a lamp bead 106 . The lamp bead 106 is disposed on a side of the display panel 103 facing the bracket 102 and is located inside the base 105 .
[0088] In the disclosed embodiment, the lamp bead 106 is arranged on the display panel 103 to illuminate the key icons for user operation. The lamp bead 106 is arranged in the hollow structure of the base 105 to illuminate the icons more clearly, so that the user can press the keys accurately, improve sensitivity and user experience.
[0089] Optionally, there are multiple lamp beads 106 , and the multiple lamp beads 106 are arranged at intervals in the hollow structure of the base 105 .
[0090] For example, the number of the lamp beads 106 is four, and the four lamp beads 106 are arranged in a matrix in the base 105 .
[0091] Optionally, the lamp bead 106 is an LED lamp bead.
[0092] Optionally, the opening area of the spring 104 on the side facing the bracket 102 is larger than the opening area of the spring 104 on the side facing the base 105 .
[0093] In the disclosed embodiment, the opening area of the spring 104 on the side close to the display panel mask 101 is larger, and the opening area of the spring 104 on the side close to the display panel 103 is smaller. This will not block the icons inside the spring 104, and will also facilitate light divergence, thereby improving the user experience.
[0094] Illustratively, the spring 104 is in a bell-mouth shape.
[0095] Optionally, a wall surface of the base body 1051 facing the display panel 103 is provided with a support foot 10526 , and when the base 105 is connected to the display panel 103 , the support foot 10526 abuts against the display panel 103 .
[0096] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the base 105 is mounted on the display panel 103, the base body 1051 is in contact with the display panel 103 only through the support legs 10526, which can reduce the contact between the base body 1051 and the display panel 103 and facilitate the heat dissipation of the display panel. Moreover, the support legs 10526 abut against the display panel 103, which facilitates the electrical conduction between the base 105 and the spring 104, thereby realizing the key function of the display device 10.
[0097] Optionally, the base 105 is connected to the display panel 103 by bolts, which can further improve the connection stability between the base 105 and the display panel 103 .

[0100] Optionally, the bolt hole 10525 and the claw 1052 are not on the same side, so that multiple edges of the base 105 can be connected to the display panel 103, thereby improving the circumferential connection stability of the base 105.
[0101] For example, the limiting portion 1054 corresponds to the supporting foot 10526 , that is, the shape, position and number of the limiting portion 1054 are the same as those of the supporting foot 10526 , which can improve the structural strength at the supporting foot 10526 and enhance the limiting effect of the limiting portion 1054 .
[0102] Optionally, when the cross-section of the base body 1051 includes a corner, the limiting portion 1054 is wrapped around the outside of the corner, which can reduce the space of the mounting portion 1053 occupied by the limiting portion 1054 and ensure that the spring 104 and the mounting portion 1053 are installed at the same time, so that the hollow structure space of the base 105 is larger, which will not block the icon and is also convenient for light emission.
[0103] Optionally, icons are provided on the wall of the display panel 103 facing the bracket 102, and the spring 104 and the base 105 are both hollow structures, and the base 105 is arranged around the outside of the icons, so that the user can pass through the display panel mask 101 and observe the icons from the hollow structure of the spring 104 and the base 105, which is convenient for selecting keys. The hollow structure of the base 105 is also provided with lamp beads 106, and when the user's finger touches the display panel mask 101, the lamp beads 106 are energized, and the lamp beads 106 can illuminate the icons, which is convenient for the user to press keys.
[0104] Optionally, there are multiple spring assemblies, and the multiple spring assemblies are arranged at intervals on the display panel 103. The shape and size of the base 105 and the spring 104 match the shape and size of the icon, that is, the shape and size of the base 105 and the spring 104 are the same as those of the icon, so that the base 105 and the spring 104 can be better enclosed outside the icon.
[0105] Optionally, the display panel mask 101 is made of a light-transmitting material, or only the position corresponding to the through hole 1021 is made of a light-transmitting material; or, the material of the display cover is not limited, and only the display hole is opened at the position corresponding to the through hole 1021 of the bracket 102 to achieve light transmission.
[0106] Optionally, the display panel mask 101 and the bracket 102 are welded by ultrasonic welding, which makes the display panel mask 101 and the bracket 102 more firmly fixed and less likely to fall off.
[0107] Optionally, a colored film is attached to the wall of the display panel mask 101 away from the bracket 102, so that the display effect of the display device 10 is better and the user experience is improved.
[0108] Optionally, the colored film is a capacitive touch film.
[0109] Optionally, the display panel 103 is detachably connected to the bracket 102 , so that the display panel 103 and the bracket 102 can be easily disassembled to facilitate the maintenance of the display panel 103 .
[0110] Optionally, the display panel 103 and the bracket 102 are connected by screws.
[0111] Optionally, the bracket 102 is snap-connected with the display panel 103 .
[0112] Alternatively, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a first buckle 1023 is provided on the outer edge of the bracket 102 . The first buckle 1023 protrudes toward the display panel 103 , and the buckle can abut against the wall of the display panel 103 away from the bracket 102 .
[0113] In the disclosed embodiment, the outer edge of the bracket 102 is snap-fitted to the display panel 103 via the first snap 1023 , which will neither affect the internal structure of the display panel 103 nor the connection between the spring assembly and the display panel 103 , nor the coordination between the spring assembly and the bracket 102 .
[0114] Optionally, there are multiple first clips 1023 , which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the bracket 102 , or the multiple first clips 1023 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the bracket 102 , so as to improve the connection stability between the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 .
[0115] Optionally, the upper side wall of the bracket 102 extends toward the display panel 103 to form a water retaining eave 1022 , and the water retaining eave 1022 covers the upper side wall of the display panel 103 .
[0116] In the disclosed embodiment, there is a lot of water vapor inside the refrigerator compartment, which is prone to condensation. The structure of the water retaining eaves 1022 can prevent water drops from dripping onto the display panel 103, thus achieving a good shielding effect.
[0117] Optionally, the distance that the water retaining eaves 1022 protrude from the wall surface of the bracket 102 facing the display panel 103 is 4 mm-6 mm.
[0118] In the disclosed embodiment, the distance that the water retaining eaves 1022 protrudes from the wall surface of the bracket 102 facing the display panel 103 is less than 4 mm, and the display panel 103 cannot be completely blocked. When the distance that the water retaining eaves 1022 protrudes from the wall surface of the bracket 102 facing the display panel 103 is greater than 6 mm, the length of the water retaining eaves 1022 is too long, which affects the connection between the bracket 102 and the embedded box 107, and easily leads to a larger thickness of the display device 10.
[0119] For example, the distance that the water retaining eaves 1022 protrude from the wall surface of the bracket 102 facing the display panel 103 is 4 mm, 5 mm, or 6 mm.
[0120] Alternatively, if Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the display device 10 further includes an embedded box 107, which is disposed on a side of the display panel 103 away from the bracket 102.

[0121] In the disclosed embodiment, the embedded box 107 can be embedded in the foaming layer to facilitate the installation of the display panel 103, the bracket 102 and the display panel mask 101. The bracket 102 is fixedly connected to the display panel mask 101, and the bracket 102 is detachably connected to the display panel 103, so that the display panel mask 101, the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 can be connected as one. The bracket 102 is detachably connected to the embedded box 107, so that the display panel mask 101, the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 connected as one can be installed in the installation cavity 1071 of the embedded box 107.
[0122] Optionally, the outer edge of the bracket 102 is provided with a second buckle 1024 , and the embedded box 107 is provided with a slot 1075 , and the second buckle 1024 can be inserted into the slot 1075 , thereby achieving connection between the bracket 102 and the embedded box 107 .
[0123] Optionally, there are multiple second buckles 1024 , and the second buckles 1024 and the first buckles 1023 are arranged at intervals, so that the bracket 102 can simultaneously achieve the connection between the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 and the embedded box 107 .
[0124] Optionally, the wall surface of the embedded box 107 partially protrudes in the direction away from the installation cavity 1071 to form a slot 1075, which can ensure the depth of the slot 1075 and will not reduce the thickness of the embedded box 107. Moreover, such a slot 1075 has a simple structure and is easy to process.
[0125] Optionally, the first buckle 1023 and the second buckle 1024 are oriented in opposite directions, so that the bracket 102 can be connected to the display panel 103 and the embedded box 107 at the same time.
[0126] Optionally, the installation cavity 1071 includes an inner cavity 1072 and an outer cavity 1073, the outer cavity 1073 is extended along the circumference of the inner cavity 1072 and is arranged on the outside of the inner cavity 1072, the depth of the inner cavity 1072 is greater than the depth of the outer cavity 1073, the display panel 103 and the bracket 102 are installed in the inner cavity 1072, and the display panel mask 101 is installed in the outer cavity 1073.
[0127] In the disclosed embodiment, the inner cavity 1072 has a large depth, which can provide enough space to install the bracket 102 and the display panel 103. In addition, the separate arrangement of the outer cavity 1073 and the inner cavity 1072 can improve the installation stability of the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 and prevent the bracket 102 and the display panel 103 from shaking.
[0128] Optionally, the embedded box 107 includes a body and a folded edge, the folded edge is arranged at the outer edge of the body, and the folded edge extends along the circumference of the body.
